Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ichigo of course popped out a little green pill from his clothes, and quickly stuffed it into his body's mouth, which quickly got up again to look at Ichigo "Yo~! bout time you let me have some air..." Ichigo just frowned a bit "not now Kon, get my body to safety and if you need to, go protect my sisters. otherwise i'm letting Yuzu have you for the entire -week- in your plushie body." of course that made 'Kon' sweat a bit, before zipping off quickly to go do as Ichigo asked while said shinigami substitute continued firing Getsuga Tenshou's to keep the hollows back.

Shiro meanwhile was helping clear out some of the Heartless and Nobodies, when a few of the Samurai Nobodies sprung forth next, causing him to go slightly wide-eyed before frowning as he tossed Revival into the air, and quickly summoned to his hands Kanshou and Bakuya, his mainstay weapons, and got into a true sword fight with it, even ducking between jumps of shadows and such trying to claw him from behind.

Roveth of course was facing mainly shadows and dusks, looking bored while punting them left and right, or smashing them to bits with Lockdown "Che! okay, this is boring..." he said with annoyance clear in his tone as his eyes started glowing a bright golden amber before he flicked around the card he had in hand back into the deckbox, and proceeded to turn into a purplish black streak, slicing through dusks and Shadows alike before leaping into the air and flinging Lockdown to crash into the ground, and generate a large ammount of dark energy to yank in the remaining heartless (and a few of the hollows) before the void collapsed in on itself, destroying the heartless, nobodies, and Hollows, releasing any hearts within them, of course. "Void Break... now how's that for a clean sweeper?" he said in amusement while landing and grabbing his Keyblade once more.

of course with Crystal lambasting the Nobodies and Heartless, it wouldn't take long for the group to quickly mop up the rest of the minor idiots, though the few Samurai Nobodies were also damaged in the mess of fire and ice explosions, it took Shiro using Kakuyoku Sanren, and then an overhead swipe with his Keyblade, before getting side-swiped like being hit by a freight train, by one of the masked creatures that had gotten past the natives of the world, and sent flying into the tree with a loud -THUNK-, before Shiro collapsed on his rump from that one.

Roveth of course snapped his head back to see Shiro go flying "Shiro!" he called, blocking one attack from a particularly stubborn soldier heartless, before the blade became covered in black flames "i don't have time for you! Shadow Blaze Wave!" he called out, before unleashing a chain combo of strikes, and then finally finishing the Soldier off with a crescent wave of black flames, similar to the Getsuga Tenshou from Ichigo, but more along the lines of it just being raw black fire, which -HURTS- even darkness enemies.

Shiroi Senkou had launched up into the air and with a loud Kweh, proceeded to dive down with the Kick-o-Doom on the Hollow, smashing into it's body quite a few times, before peppering the face with a Choco-Ball, and then... promptly landing with a wark, before zooming to hide behind the orange haired girl Orihime.

Ichigo, Sado/Chad, and Ishida were too busy dealing with the other stronger hollows to not be able to handle protecting Shiro at the moment, though it seemed they noticed from Roveth's shout, and were trying to find a way to pull one of them back to try and take the hollow out.

Shiro of course groaned, looking up to see the mindless hollow roar, and charge right for him as he slowly got to his feet "ugh.. well.. that.. hurt." he muttered, before glaring with one eye at the hollow, the other covered a bit from his unkempt white hair while he tried to muster some more strength to trace or summon something, and getting nothing at the moment due to the haziness of his sight and his focus somewhat waning.

Shiro of course groaned a bit while rubbing his chest from the leftover pain that was quickly fading from the use of Curaga and Regen by crystal, likewise, the hollow that was hit by Holy and Flare was hurting royally now, if the screech of pain was any idea. granted Shiro was grumbling while he brought his hand up to chest level as he focused a bit, as if listening t something, probably instincts, though really it was the first 'soul cutter' that had implanted itself in his soul while using his Reality Marble as a good anchor to work on melding to Shiro's soul. as he opened his eyes, they went from their bright blue to a diligent forest green as he gripped the framework of the sword in prana form "Trace.. On!" he called out, before unleashing a flourish of prana and magic energy, to bring out the huge cross hilted black blade that had landed in front of him, and proceeded to quickly dash forward, and jump into the air and after a slight front flip, aim a vertical slash down the Hollow's body, bisecting it and with the mask split,, the body began dissolving into purified spirit particles, while unseen but still felt by the veteran key-blader Crystal, a ton of hearts were released from that hollow as it and the souls were purified.

Rooveth and the others just looked on in mild surprise in how the blade appeared in Shiro's hands, well, Roveth less so ,but it did intrigue him that this world could be easily usable to help Shiro grow more of a deadly arsenal of weapons for fighting the heartless, nobodies, and well, the idiotic craziness of Xehanort. granted, he looked over his shoulder at an incoming dusk nobody, and proceeded to flick out a card to activate, Mirror Force, which not only sent the dusk flying into some soldier heartless, they all went boom and turned into hearts flying off, having been hit by the effect of mirror force, which destroys all monsters designated as 'attackers' and proceeded to peer about, seeing no more hollows or Heartless and Nobodies around, the 'Scion of Shadow' so to speak just chilled by reflexively moving to lean against the tree.

Ichigo and Ishida had managed to put their own weapons away, though Ichigo seemed to be smiling a bit "it seems you guys can take care of yourselves, ne? maybe you can help us with a bit of a problem we're having with a few things here, aside from the Heartless and Nobodies."

Shiro had looked to Crystal with amusement, granted the fact that his being a walking armory didn't hurt but helped the entire mess, he just tilted his head "well, we already predicted that this would be a decent place to hide and train, so why not? besides, you know me Crystal, all one needs to do is ask and i will -gladly- take up the title of 'Meddling Kid' just to make sure chaos isn't wrought." granted, this got chuckles out of Ichigo and the others, who just nodded in ascent "Well, to put it bluntly... Soul Society, one of the realms tied to this world, is filled with spiritual... balancers? yes, balancers/enforcers known as Shinigami, or Soul Reaper, depends on who you ask on the given day." he chuckled a bit before continuing "well, we've been fighting off hollows for some time, and even rescued a friend of mine from some traitorous Shinigami, who're still at large. we need help in case they show back up, or send powerful minions we can't handle on our own."

Roveth had been listening in, before deciding to speak up "Crystal had me at 'meddling', so i'll be glad to help too, as a master of the Shadows." he said with a smirk, petting Shiroi Senkou and all while watching over things, yeah ,you could count on Roveth if there was a fight and he got to play with his opponents, so to speak. "i could also challenge them to a Yami no Game, and punish them for being idiotic little souls..." he said slyly, causing everyone from this universe to back away from Roveth as he chuckled amusedly.

Shiro had watched as the four allies looked to each other before Ichigo spoke up "well, nothing huge when it comes to the black or white things, the only huge things we know are the Menos Grande Hollows. In more particular the Gillian class." this caused Shiro to raise an eyebrow before looking in the background to see an opening Garganta (not that he knew the name, but just mentioning it from personal knowledge) and a long nosed Evangelion-sized Hollow walked out screeching in multiple tones, due to being a hollow that has hundreds of souls inside it. "I take it you mean that thing?" Shiro asked, as Shiroi Senko just stared upwards, before warking in an 'oh CRAP!' moment

Roveth meanwhile sweatdropped at the huge hollow as Ishida groaned "yes, that is a Menos Grande. Jeez, no rest for the weary..." he said before getting ready to fight as the Shadow user just nodded and pulled out a card "great... Well! Activate magical equip: Celestial Sword - Eatos!" he called out, bringing forth a rapier-like blade which increased his strength a bit and also shined with a divine or holy energy no one expected Roveth to wield.

Shiro of course brought back out the second blade he had... Attached to his soul, cross guard and black blade and all, readying to help as the others got ready to defend or fight the monstrosity.

Shiro had twisted, and swung the cross-guarded blade to create a vacuum and hailstrom of wind infused energy blades as he called out suddenly "Vortex Blade!" as it went flying right for the hollow, doing some decent damage to it. even as Ichigo leaped up into the air and ignited his blade on blue spiritual fire, by pushing his reiatsu in the blade before he narrowed his eyes "Getsuga TENSHOU~!" he cried out, before unleashing a massive slash-beam of reiatsu as well to follow Shiro's Vortex Blade.

Roveth had pondered on how to contribute, before shrugging, and just leaving it to the others for now in amusement even as Chad unleashes El-Directo Blasts at the Menos Grande, Ishida unleashing arrows in an arc on the b*****d, and pretty much it wasn't long until the flattened Menos grande pancake was turning into purified spirit particles from the raw over-kill from the group at the moment outside of Roveth helping at the moment.

Shiro had nodded to Crystal with a sigh as he stood there a moment, before proceeding to stab the blade into the ground and lean against it to breathe deeply, seems the fights did take a lot out of Shiro at the moment as he worked on keeping focus a moment. "phew... that was definitely a workout." he said, while at least trying to not look further at Ichigo's sword, given he's already got it, and a few others in his reality marble from this, it's just going to be a while before he could sort through things, not to mention the soul attachments.

Chad, Ichigo, and Ishida had also proceeded to power down as well, for Ichigo's case, it was to go get back in his body and all "well, that was interesting, to be sure." the quincy had mentioned while adjusting his Glasses, while ichigo spoke up "least now they'll hush up for a few hours."

Roveth had been watching from the background with Shiroi Senko as he shook his head a bit in amusement ~seems my Hikari-no-Aibou is growing stronger.. or more skilled, though sometimes both go hand in hand.. still, it should be interesting to see how this continues to play out.~

Shiro and Roveth had blinked when they looked over to the duel going on, Squall and Cloud meanwhile were in their own little worlds, so to speak, smirking all the same as they collided sword to sword, blow to blow, backing off before rushing in to go at it again "still think i could've handled those heartless myself back then." Squall had said while parrying blows with Cloud, as cloud just shook his head "oh really, with that play-toy of a sword?" of course, Cloud would give powerful slashes and strikes that'd maker Squall Backpedal a bit "not like yours is any better, are you overcompensating for other things?" he then whirled around and started unleashing powerful strikes in return which were parried beautifully by Cloud "don't know what you're talking about." Cloud said roughly while spinning his blade in one hand and taking up a stance as Squall just narrowed his eyes, and focused energy into his own blade "HAAAA~!" Cloud had unleashed Sonic Blade, while Cloud had countered as best he could before getting flung to the ground with a groan and small crater "Ugh... ow." he said simply, while Cloud had walked over and held out his hand "come on, look sharp.. we have friends coming." Squall just looked behind him towards the three keybladers, as Shiro just chuckled a bit lightly "that was an interesting sight to see." he said, while Squall scoffed "i could've won that." of course, Cloud just responded back "just like you could've killed that last heartless?" of course, this made Squall give Cloud a dirty look, knowing full well what he's talking about. Roveth just chuckled and shook his head "ah the banter... something i've loved seeing happen with my light half to other opponents." of course, Squall noticed the newcomer and raised an eyebrow "wait... who is that?" of course, Cloud frowned, sensing something he was not liking "and why is he leaking so much darkness that he'd attract heartless in a heartbeat?" shiro of course moved in front of Roveth with a sigh "whoa whoa whoa! can we not try to kill people please?"
